How to automaticly log in to hotmail once a month ?

chrisdee

Hello. I wonder if there is a way to use php to automaticly
login to my hotmail accounts.

I got several accounts and sometimes forget to login for a
while. After no login for 30 days the accounts get disabled,
and I have to reactivate them. The problem is that all mail is
deleted if i forget to login every month.

Is there a way to keep accounts alive by letting a php script
login for eksample every 14 days ?

I would greatly apreciate any examples.

I don't have a script like that - have you searched for one?

It should be straightforward enough to write. Ultimately, you just want to identify the basic series of http requests you need to send and loop through them, for each request you would need to

populate request URL with any variable session data
send request
send any cookies already stored
accept any new cookies
honour any redirects etc
extract any new variable session data from

It would be finicky and fragile but doable.

And I just betcha that MS tries to identify and foil scripts like these.

MS are not even letting new users use Outlook Express to synchronise with Hotmail ... one of their own programs.

Having said that, a good trawl through the MSDN site may get a result.
